Prepare Your Mind & Heart

You should now be in a Quiet, peaceful place, ready for divination.
The ACCURACY depends on your SINCERITY!

  1. 1. Focus Your Question: Clearly formulate the question you wish to ask the Oracle. You may write it down to help maintain focus. (Need guidance on questions? Review our guidelines.)
  2. 2. Enter a Peaceful State & Offer Intent: Close your eyes. Take a few deep breaths. With utmost sincerity, offer a small prayer & state your intent. You might say something like (JUST A ROUGH GUIDE, NO NEED WORD FOR WORD):
    “假尔泰筮有常，某（自己名字）今以某事（想要占问之事），未知可否。爰质所疑于神之灵，吉凶、得失、悔吝、忧虞，惟尔有神，尚明告知。”
    (Translation: “If divination through the oracle holds truth, I, (Your Name), now seek guidance regarding (your question). The outcome remains uncertain, and I bring my doubts before the spirit. I ask for insight into what is favorable or unfavorable, whether there will be gain or loss, regret or blame, worry or trouble. You, who hold divine wisdom, I humbly ask—please reveal the answer with clarity.”)
    Alternatively, a just simple prayer like: "Dear I Ching, dear Gods [name of your God if you have a Religion] , I have a huge dilemma regarding [question] and I sincerely seek your wisdom and guidance."
  3. 3. Receive Three Numbers: Keeping your question in mind, allow three numbers to come to you. They can be of any length. Alternatively, you can randomly flip open a book three times and note the page numbers. Once you have your three numbers, enter them above.
